LOCK HIM UP! Is Trump illegally deleting his tweets?

Representatives Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) and Elijah Cummings
(D-Maryland) have sent a letter to the White House warning Trump and his servants
that they may be violating the Presidential Records Act and Federal Records Act
by deleting tweets. The Congressmen refer
to recent news reports that Trump uses at least two twitter accounts and that
he and/or his underlings are known to have deleted tweets for various reasons,
such as removing tweets that might make Trump appear illiterate or just plain
dumb. Such deletions could be and very likely
are, a violation of Federal laws, equal to or greater than deleting
emails.

Should we ask the Russians to help us recover these missing
tweets and share them via Wikileaks? Should
we LOCK HIM UP? Or, is fairness for the
goose different from that for the gander?
